ASwarm II V2.0 - Quick Install

ASwarm   II  V2.0  provides  "Load  Config",  "Save  Config"
features.

It's no longer necessary to edit the Parameters of ASwarm II
with the Tooltype Entries in the Icon with the "Information"
function of the workbench.

This  features does only work, when you start ASwarm II from
the workbench.



REQUIREMENTS:

ASwarm   II  2.0  needs  at  least  Workbench  2.0.   It  is
recommended to use Version 2.1 or 3.0 of Workbench.

Also,  ASwarm  II  2.0  needs  the  MUI System with at least
Version 1.4.  See MUI.readme and below.



QUICK-INSTALL:

If  you  don't  have  the  Installer Tool, please follow the
description in this text.

The Installer Tool has been officially released by Commodore
and  you can get it from various places, i.e.  the AmiNet or
the Fred Fish AmigaLib Disks.  It is free and was especially
designed for installing packages.

Copy  "ASwarm"  and  "ASwarm.info"  to  the  "SYS:WBStartup"
drawer.   Or just click and move (drag) the "ASwarm" icon to
"SYS:WBStartup".

CLI:    Copy ASwarm ASwarm.info TO SYS:WbStartup



QUICK-SETUP:

Now  start  ASwarm with a double-click on it's icon.  If the
Config-Window  doesn't  show  up, double-click the icon once
more,  this  should  open  the window.  If it still doesn't:
have you been copying ASwarm, too, not just the Icon ?

Edit all desired Parameters, e.g.  number of bees, speed and
Display Mode.

Now  use  the  "Save Config" in the "Project Menu" (or press
"Right Amiga S").

The  Configuration  will  be  saved  into the Icon.  On next
start, this Configuration will be used.

Have fun with these new features.


For interest:  We use the Icon.library to access to the Tool
Type  Entries.   This  is  only  possible  when ASwarm II is
started  from  the  workbench.   Existing Tool Types Entries
will be overwritten.



MUI SPECIFIC:

Please  have in mind that the Edit Window of ASwarm can only
be  opened  when  the MUI system is installed.  Refer to the
file ReadMe.MUI.



ONLINE HELP:

To use the Online Help, there are three different ways:

You  copy  the file "<ASwarm>/English/ASwarm.guide" into the
directory where ASwarm will be started. (Not recommended)

Or   you   enhance   the   file   ENV:AmigaGuide/Path   (and
ENVARC:AmigaGuide/Path) with the entry "<ASwarm>/English".
(Recommended if you want to install Doc-Files in a seperate
directory)

The  Installer  Tool copies the Guide-Files to the directory
HELP:English;  this is since WB 2.1 the default search path,
you can do also. (Recomended)
